A Service of Lament allows the congregation to cry out together to God, to lament what cannot be regained, to release what no longer serves, to hear again God’s promise, and to give thanks for God’s steadfast love.
St. Peter’s will hold a service of lament at 7 p.m. on Holy Saturday. At this service our prayers, meditations, and offerings will make the way for us to mark this moment to lay down burdens we may be carrying. If during Lent or over a longer season your feelings or thoughts might burden you, such that they bring interference with the celebration of Easter, this service may be helpful to you.
Please come to the quiet of this service and find relief for your hearts before the great Easter Vigil that will immediately follow at 8 p.m.
